I don't have a hackaday account. But, I just wanted to clear up some confusion a poster over there seems to have, just in case you got some ideas about what this video was going to show you based on what you read there. Or you found this video yourself and also came to the same conclusions they did. Or were about to to come to these conclusions. They seem to have gotten the point of this thing backwards. So, it's strangely easier to clarify things in reverse order. Starting from the end: "He runs through a few other potentially useful scenarios, but really, the best use of something like this is to educate yourself on the lowest levels of USB connection negotiation". *_The whole point_** and really **_only point_** of the board shown **_is_** to demonstrate the first (low level) thing a USB device does to signal for attachment, which in turn causes it to list in the mentioned utilities, in the way shown.* That is, the minimum thing that a USB device has to do right to cause that to happen, namely USB device pull-ups. The point _is to educate yourself on that topic and hopefully have that inform your debugging of USB device problems._ Or you can just find it mildly interesting. The board you see in the video was put together to help demonstrate the device pull-ups and nothing more. That "best use" was the _only intended use_ for it. *_"[TM] points out, you could use this circuit to test that the physical port on the host at least minimally works."_* You could use it that way. But that's not what I'm explaining at all. What I'm showing is what you can expect to see on your computer (in both Windows and Linux), if something successfully creates these signals alone. These signals are the minimum needed to list in same way in both Device Manager and dmesg. That's what I'm showing in the video. *_"as this extremely minimal but functional USB device illustrates."_* Well, the board is somewhat minimal. But, as many people pointed that you don't really need an actual linear regulator IC on it (more on that below). However, this is definitely not anything _I_ call a "functional USB device." It quite literally reports with failures to read the device descriptor and has nothing on it capable of sending USB messages, which are both things mentioned in the video. What it _is_ is a demonstration of the "minimum needed for a USB device to list in Device Manager", hence the video title. So far as I can tell, the author thought the material at the end of the video was intended to describe ways to use the board shown, as though it were made to be a tool you could build and not what it is, a demonstration board. What's being talked about at the end of the video are ways you can use "this understanding"... understanding of USB pull-up resistors. These are the "something useful" I mentioned at the beginning of the video, the "something useful to use in your thinking when troubleshooting USB problems." Ways to use the under "understanding". *Not* ways to use the board. I hope I'm not coming off as mean in the above. I'm glad someone was thoughtful enough to mention it on a site about electronics. It's crazy to me than anyone is watching this. I thought like maybe 5 people would watch it, maybe 50. But so long as people are watching it, I do want to make really clear about what is being said in the video and what is not. It is just demonstration and description of a basic thing that USB devices do and how you might use the knowledge of that which is demonstrated to help you in troubleshooting. Regarding regulators and dividers: Mostly I used a regulator to be more or less in analogy with what you actually find in USB devices. They're typically already 3.3V devices powered by a regulator. Or they're 5V devices that have an internal 3.3V regulator specifically for this purpose. And it's probably the least distracting thing to put there when you're explaining something not-that on the board. I'd also briefly considered using what the Digispark uses, which is essentially a zener regulator and because it features later in the video. And because I also happened to know where some of my zener diodes were. But, I also just had a regulator. And yeah, you could also probably just make a divider from VUSB to GND. I didn't try it. I expect it works. But also I simply had a regulator and cap at hand. Could you use a divider? Yeah probably. If you wanted to rely on the 15k internal pulldown you won't wind up with 1.5K on the top. You'll need something more like 8K, I think. Which is not what is called for. Would it work? Probably, I think. If it worked for me would it work for you? I don't know. Maybe. If you put 1.5K on the top with only 15K on the bottom you'll wind up above the 3.3V nominal signal range. Is that a problem? Maybe not. If it wasn't a problem (perhaps damaging something) for me would in not be a problem for you? I don't know. So, you'd need a resistor in parallel with the 15K internal one, which is quite large compared to what you'd need externally. So you can more or less ignore the 15K and you don't necessarily need to run the parallel resistor calculation and just think of it as simple two resistor network. If you put a 3K resistor on the bottom of the divider that should be about right. With 1.5K on the top it divides 5V to about 3.3V. Would that work? Probably. However, the USB host is going to act on that divider when it tries to set a device address and ask for a device descriptor. Is that a problem? I don't know. If it worked for me, would.... Or you could just use a regulator. And then it will work and immediately be recognized as something that will work if you were trying to explain it someone else, say in a video for example. =) If you want to play with voltage dividers or the Digispark/V-USB/bitbanged style zener setup, go for it. If you have TL431 kicking around, I'm sure you could get that to work. Or if you have a simple 3.3V fixed output linear regulator kicking around, maybe just use that. If you're not worried about the repeatability of your setup you have a lot more freedom. Try stuff way out of spec. I did and found at least on hubs that I tried it on it worked fine to get similar results. But, you can get a 3.3V regulator like for under 1USD, in quantity one, at least if you're in the US ordering anything from a US parts distributor. Original Message: I'm really surprised to find this sort of support. Especially on a video like this. Had a little more to say about it in a community post. But mostly I just want to say thanks for letting me know you're getting anything out of watching this. It's just good to see. kzread.infoUgkxvMno3tHF9bHJ4N3BiNBrIeZPUuBtQZWF

I just got randomly introduced to your channel by the algorithm, which is kinda weird tbh since I intentionally never watch any tech channels (I find the "geek as a way of life" philosophy of most tech channels very cringeworthy, but I digress). Regardless, for a channel with 1k subs and sub-100k views on a week old video the content is pretty good, definitely good enough for me to gamble my time giving it a sub which is more than 99% of KZread channels can say. If I had to make a suggestion I'd say invest in a good microphone. Right now the voice track sounds crunchier than a a bag of Cheetos, to the point that for a while I thought you were using a voice modulator of some sort. Nowadays you can get amazing audio for less than $100 and such investment would improve the overall quality of the videos tremendously, specially because the other elements are already pretty good.

A SuperSpeed connection solely uses the SuperSpeed wires, so it'll even work with D+/D- completely disconnected.

@@user-th3jl8mz7y the algorithm™ is weird. Sometimes random videos become popular for no reason. My theory is that for channels with low numbers the algorithm™ suggests it to only few people, then bases how "worthy" the video is based on that. Basically, it seems to think that it's not worth to show videos of channels with few subs to many people to try to "push" them. This means that if the first few people don't watch it, the video does bad. But every once in a while a video like that will be lucky and be suggested to people that actually watch it. This makes the algorithm™ think it's very good, and "worth" its time to show it to more people, which creates a snowball effect.
Got this video recommended to me in my feed. I wasn't looking for this, nor do I have a particular use case for it at the moment. But watching these well explained videos of small creators always reminds of KZread in it's early days where you got recommended all sorts of random videos because the algorithm wasn't that specific.

Next, grab the D+ and D- switches and manipulate them so they are on or off for roughly 570 ns with the following pattern...
11:31 instead of being pulled to 3.3 volts, it's pulled to 5V across a 1500Ω resistor. The whole 5V to 3.3V conversion is based on resistors and zener diodes. The necessary code for USB is controlled by bit bang software.

So, I may have done something wrong. Real Zeners are a bit more fiddly than the TL431 I think. But it captures the basic idea.
At around 7:00 when you say the “system sees the pull up resistor” I would change that to the “the USB controller sees the pull up resistor and reports to the system”. Minor semantic change but it would maintain the different layers appropriately separate. Thank you for the great video!

Somewhere in Alaska a railroad crossing signal turns on. =) In all seriousness, my understanding was just that you're not supposed to that. So, I wasn't particularly worried covering it. I didn't dig deeply for proscribed behaviour for that situation or warnings against it. However, I was curious enough to turn both switches on and plug the device in and I got inconsistent behaviour in dmesg. Often it seems to detect as low-speed. Sometimes after having detected as low speed if I pull the plug and reinsert it, it doesn't show anything in dmesg. And I'll that repeated and still nothing shows. So, I switch ports on the hub and it shows again as low-speed. Re-insert, nothing. And there seems to be some memory of this event per-port. I'm not sure how much time I want to put into characterizing it though. Because it's possible that it won't be repeatable by anyone not using the same setup. Some of the random element I think I'm seeing may come down to just how I'm physically connecting the cable, it may be matter of which pin touches first. And the weird memory exhibited may be down to something about how my particular hub handles a non-standard situation. And the reason for that might ultimately just come back to "yeah, you're not supposed to do that." But I may look again at the standard if I get bored. They're all PDFs that you can freely download. So, if you're curious you might have a look.

The very first stage of it, the minimum to get to list somehow in these utilities. I find it odd to display that way in Device Manager because I would normally tend to think of what's in there as fully detected devices. Really this kind of more like "I've detected a USB attachment request, but I've failed to complete the entire device detection process." Where a full detection would include at least getting as far as reading a device descriptor containing those hardware ids I'd mentioned aren't there.
You somehow managed to explain in a way that my Aspy brain understands completely 👍
Excellent explanation!
Oh wow this is actually super duper gosh dang useful to know My goodness :O
This kind of increased my respect for windows. The diagnostic message in the device manager is cool
Wow cool! When it comes to plugging a circuit that I've made into a modern machine, I would've thought it be much harder to get the OS to acknowledge its existence.
